Tim Banks is the CEO of APM, a Canada wide construction and property development company, with its head office in Charlottetown, PEI. My family has lived on PEI for over eight generations and I was born at the Prince County Hospital in Summerside, PEI. I am hoping someone will soon develop a blood test to authenticate when you actually become an "Islander" as I am still having problems explaining where I'm from?

Well folks... in an attempt to improve my "blog" I going to try and bring it to another level with "Twitter" http://twitter.com/tim_banks but the real truth is I'm getting old and I can't remember from one minute to the next... lots of times I'll be driving in the car and I'll have this great idea for the blog but somewhere between what goes on during the day and by the time I get home I can't remember... I'll be at lunch and someone will come up to me and ask me why I don't comment on something and again I'll get home that night and I'll go blank... other times someone will tell me something that interesting and maybe "juicy" but by the time I get to it the main stream media are on to it... so I've signed up to Twitter and set my blackberry up to be able to shoot off quick bulletins of things I find interesting during the day which I may or may not expand on later in the "blog".... what I'm hoping to do is keep everyone up to date on business and political talk around the Island as it happens so if you "want to hear it first" then hit the "Tim's Tweets" symbol to the left of my blog and sign up and "follow" along... thanks...
